Galaxies are classified by their shape what are they called?

There are three types of galaxies, all of which are the same, with the exception of their shapes. There are the Elliptical galaxies (football-shaped) the Spiral galaxies (like the Milky way; vortex-shaped) and Irregular galaxies (all shapes other than spiral and football shaped).

Edwin Hubble categorized galaxies according to their?

Shape, or morph. The spiral galaxies, elliptical galaxies, lenticular, barred spiral, and irregular galaxies all are different shapes or morphs of galaxies, and so they are classified differently.


Three quarters of all known galaxies are what galaxies?

That is a difficult question to fully answer as types of galaxies are not fully defined. A ball park figure would be dwarf galaxies, or spiral galaxies depending on the area in question. See related question for a full breakdown.

How are galaxies classified in the field of astronomy?

Galaxies are classified in astronomy based on their shape, size, and structure. The main types of galaxies are spiral, elliptical, and irregular. Spiral galaxies have a central bulge with spiral arms, elliptical galaxies are oval-shaped with no distinct structure, and irregular galaxies have a chaotic shape. Additionally, galaxies can be further classified based on their activity level, such as active or passive galaxies.
